I feel like it was yesterday that I sat down to write the previous New Year’s letter. Yet when I look at what Mana has achieved since then, it’s hard to believe that it’s only been a year. This just proves that time flies when you’re working hard and having fun, especially when you’re part of an awesome team like we have. It’s become a Mana tradition to summarise our progress at New Year’s, so without further ado, here is the best of 2019. In January, we released the first flavoured versions of Mana in drink form. Shortly after, in the same month, we followed up with their powder equivalents, for a total of 4 flavours and 8 products. In...

Can you imagine riding a bike 460 kilometers per day for nearly 11 days? For athlete and Mana ambassador Daniel Polman the answer is a resounding "Yes!"  The world's toughest cycling ultramarathon, Race Across America (RAAM), requires cyclists to ride almost 5,000 kilometers from the West to East Coast of the U.S. Participants must cross 3 brutally hot deserts, 3,000-meter mountain passes, and the Great Plains, regardless of weather conditions.  Daniel, a devoted cyclist from the Czech Republic, finished the tireless dash in 7th place. 4,940 kilometers, 10 days, 19 hours, 47 minutes. "It was an absolutely crazy test of energy. I burned up to 10,000 calories per day, which is a ton of food. I didn't eat that much, but over...

Big news! We are entering the U.S. market and are now taking pre-orders through our e-shop, drinkmana.com. In Europe, Mana is already a synonym for quick, healthy, plant-based meals, and is sold both online and at over 1,000 supermarkets and retail points. Established in 2014 by young visionary Jakub Krejcik, Mana was Europe’s first functional food. Krejcik founded the company out of his garage in 2014 with little startup capital and no assistance from investors. His intention was not just to engineer a peak-nutrition powder, but an economical, environmentally-friendly product that would accelerate the sustainable food movement. In recent years, Mana has triggered a paradigm shift in the way people think about eating. “We were the first producer of complete-nutrition...

Once a homegrown garage operation, Mana is now a successful European startup that employs a large team of scientists and biochemists, as well as patented food-production technology.  In 2014, founder Jakub Krejcik and his partners created a powdered food named after manna, an edible substance described in the Bible. They designed it to provide the human body with everything it needs and nothing more. But what began as a bootstrap effort to develop complete and healthy food for friends and family quickly turned into a large-scale initiative to serve the planet and its people. Today, Mana is a global company with a mission to scientifically engineer complete-nutrition food products for better, everyday living, and produce and distribute them via an...
